Just About 17

I'm about seventeen I guess
I read what the calendar said
but I'm not about to drop dead
I just happened on the scene
and since I wake up in the morning
and I love the world
like a boy like a boy
chasin his first girl
what do numbers mean?
I'm about seventeen

let's get to the program
wang dang do dang
wang dang do dang
just about seventeen
i say
wang dang do dang
wang dang do dang
just about seventeen

and since I still want to laugh
and I still want to go
and since you still can't beat me
for rock and roll
what do numbers mean?
I'm about seventeen

I say I'm about seventeen
yeah I know I read what the calendar said
but my heart is not yet dead
in fact I'm just showin up here on the scene
and since I walk down your street
with a certain joy
usually found in a girl
kissing her first boy
what do numbers mean?
I'm about seventeen

wang dang do dang
wang dang do dang
just about seventeen
i say
wang dang do dang
wang dang do dang
just about seventeen

? years ? getting older
it still sounds so strange
I wake up and I know
that I havent changed

I'm about seventeen
